[Kenwood] TS-870 Automatic Band & Frequency Change

[Carl Smidt]

Hi All,

I have now narrowed the problem down to being caused by my logging 
program. When the program is not active the transceiver works normally, 
but as soon as the program is activated (turned on)
the problem reoccurs. I have e-mailed the author for help.
